If you're up in Kay County and feel like it's been raining non-stop for weeks, then you're absolutely right.

In June 2026, Ponca City recorded 16.66 inches of rain. This shatters the previous record for any single month at the site (14.01 inches in June 1957)!

Another evening where prior thunderstorm activity from across the OK/TX Panhandles may move into portions of far western OK and western-north TX prior to dissipating.

Gusty winds and perhaps small hail will be possible with storms.

A few lightning strikes and sporadic light (<0.1 inch) rainfall totals are possible as activity continues to dissipate through ~10 AM.

"Rinse and repeat" with the forecast tomorrow: muggy, sunny, and breezy with a low chance of storms across the farthest west portions of the area. After that, we'll start inching the heat up a little more toward the weekend, with first 100-degree days of the year possible.

8:15 pm - Light to moderate rain and cloud-to-ground lightning continues in a few spots in far northwest Oklahoma, but thunderstorm intensity will continue to decrease. We could see some gusty winds out there between 9 and 11 pm as storms in the eastern TX panhandle decay.

[NWS Norman @NWSNorman]

6:45 pm - We're going to allow the Severe Thunderstorm Warning for Roger Mills County expire. The storm has weakened considerably.

The chance for occasional rain and storms will continue this evening across far western Oklahoma.

It's a sunny day for most of us, but you can see a plume of clouds from New Mexico through the panhandles, western Oklahoma, and into Kansas.

Scattered thunderstorms will develop in that plume this afternoon. A couple will try to approach the western part of the area.

[NWS Norman @NWSNorman]

At 1 PM - A couple of sites in northern OK were showing triple digit heat indices. The triple digit heat index values will be possible at some more sites this afternoon but not expected to be as widespread as the last few days. #okwx #txwx
